KLEINFELDER On November 26, 2003, the water level in monitoring well LMW-6 was measured and the ' field technician noted heavy machinery operating in the area. The monitoring well was reported as "Gone" on December 16, 2003. The installation of LMW-6 was constrained by the boundaries formed by the current farming operations (ie. near the southwest corner of the row crop field and east of the orchard). Plate 3 shows the location of LMW- ' 6 and the alignment of Golden Valley Parkway and the Ag Field 52a depicted over an aerial photograph taken in June 2001. Plate 4 further depicts the location of LMW-6 in relation to the site construction and road alignments in June 2004. Presently (August, ' 2005), the estimated former LMW-6 site is located beneath a home pad on the west side of Golden Valley Parkway. The remaining monitoring well PVC casing, if any, is believed to be buried beneath graded fill. Plate 1 also shows the location of LMW-3 in relation to ' the current site configuration. Piezometer P-3 was last monitored on November 11, 2004. During May 2005, ' subsequent site visits revealed that P-3 had been demolished due to grading and construction activities. Presently (August, 2005), the estimated former P-3 site is located beneath residential home pads or paved streets west of Golden Valley Parkway. The ' location of P-2 is depicted on Plate 1 in relation to the current site configuration and on Plate 4 (aerial photograph, June 2004). The remaining piezometer PVC casing, if any, is believed to be buried beneath graded fill or a paved road. Piezometers P-7 and P-8 were last monitored in April 2004. In May 2004, both piezometers were found to have been ripped from the ground. It appeared that the piezometers were demolished due to farming activities as they were located within a ' orchard at the time. Only the monument of one piezometer and a portion of 1-inch PVC casing were found on the ground surface. Presently (August, 2005), the estimated former piezometer sites are both located due south of Golden Valley Parkway. Plate 1 ' depicts the locations of P-7 and P-8 relative to the current site configuration. The remaining piezometer PVC casing, if any, is believed to be buried beneath graded fill. ' CONCLUSIONS Based on Kleinfelder's reconnaissance efforts and aerial photograph evaluation, it appears that all the former wells are located in developed areas outside the boundaries of the constructed recycled water land application areas. It appears that all wells have been destroyed during grading operations performed either during farming or during construction efforts related to residential or commercial development. Because the ' former wells are located outside land application areas and because the former wells are now located underneath roads or graded fill, there does not appear to be significant potential for the former wells to serve as conduits for recycled water to reach deeper groundwater.
